No, I'm sorry, I haven't tried selling prints online. I've never set anything like that up before- but it's certainly not a bad idea. Regardless, I'm so glad you like it!
Hmm... I'm not sure! It always reminds me of stained glass, or like colour-block minimalism.
I bought these a few years ago at a little shop nearby. They're one of my favourites from my collection.
The case and the glasses themselves are unmarked, except for a sticker that is too worn to read. So, the age is based on my own searches for similarly shaped ones (ear hoopies, contoured nose bar, general shape, case style), which pointed me to something c1910-1920's. I'm always erring on conservative with dating unmarked things...
They're very delicate and wobbly, so unfortunately they're not very wearable anymore!
I found this at a thrift store a few years ago and I've struggled to identify any of the symbols. I've tried online symbol databases, I think I tried reverse image searching, and I've tried just scrolling endless "fish" symbols to no avail. It's handmade and uses poly-fabrics, so it's certainly not an antique (or at least not a really old antique).
I love it. I think it looks really cool. I don't want to hang it up, though, if it has meaningful and/or religious meaning that would make that inappropriate.
Can anyone toss a theory my way? Is this religious imagery? Will it curse my descendants? Is this someone's Saturday afternoon craft, and they had no foresight that their fun "designs" would torture the back of my brain for years?
Saw a panel discussion where the devs called it "kuhd". I refuse to surrender. It will always be caved of "could" in my heart 😮💨.
Which was promptly smothered in cilantro as god intended.
I don't know, I feel like if you have the opportunity and the motivation to use quality * mwah * ingredients in one way or another, like freshly ground spices, it's not like it's wasted effort because you also used canned tomatoes. It just elevates all the other ingredients that much more.
Fresh is great but you use what you got, right?
Second try at making limoncello; the peels were infused for 8 weeks in a locally distilled 45% gin. Used a coffee filter to filter out any impurities, and I think I trapped too much of the oils... leading to a crystal-clear liqueur, rather than the cloudy-neon-yellow I was going for. Oh well. Next time I'll get actual 180-proof grain alcohol and will avoid paper filters. I'll also use less simple syrup. Boy howdy... lessons have been learned.
Decided to try using those leftover alcohol-soaked peels and making them into something useful... Decided on dried lemon peel powder. I wonder if it will still be 'boozy'? It smells glorious, anyway.
(This finished limoncello is roughly 20%ABV, though we like to mix it with soda because it's so. stinkin. sweet.)
If you're in the US or Canada, they've already been cleaned! :)
Yeah, definitely not Inkheart. That book/movie was about being stuck in/out of books, not drawings.
Well, the little "seeds" on the outside are nuts by def. The red fleshy part is an accessory fruit.
Yeasted buns with walnuts, oats, poppy seeds, almond slices, sesame seeds, currants, cardamom and cinnamon.
There are still a handful I've never tried (hwentia, dundicut, black lemons, pomegranate peels, sorowisa...) but I like to experiment whenever I can. Some of my favorite foods to make are Indian dishes like chicken korma or goan-style pork vindaloo, which both use many spices.
Separated all the chilis/pepper varieties onto the top, and moved all the salts to the cupboard to the right, since those two categories took too much space. Final count was 109. Phew.
A gift for my partner! It's not as creepy and weird as I'd intended it to be, but I like it.
My old person trait is that no one is allowed to be mad at me for not answering a random phone call. Sometimes it's ok to leave your phone in the other room while watching a movie, or (gasp!) At home while you're out gardening.
Any and all suggestions/criticism are welcome! It's a WIP.
There's an art Lemmy community- small for now, but a new rush of people in the next week could help get it started up!
As soon as I can! :)
